Cate your video was so helpful and instructive. You opened my eyes to new approaches and built up gumption to try them. Bravo! Your enthusiasm is contagious. Genuine thanks.

Thank you for sharing your knowledge and creativity!
I could have looked at the sketches and only seen the three item(by the way I love all the shapes, the soft curves). When you shared the light value, it was like a light bulb coming on! This is what you meant about not being boring!
I appreciate you! ❤️

I love your ideas today. Quite refreshing how you did the second painting. I’m thinking of using several antique pieces I have to paint from. Thank you so very much. If only I had a teacher like you in High School ❤

Thank you so much for your kind comment, how lovely. Antique pieces are great to work from! Best wishes, Cate x

Love the music piece in the back ground. The ideas will help me expand my ideas, when I am afraid to mark the blank field(paper). I am trying to break tradition set. Thank you for sharing and ideas.
